Why does the mold in my home keep returning?
Regular cleaning products, including bleach, only help with the places you can reach. Since mold spores are microscopic, they can go places that are hard to access, where they can remain safely, awaiting the right conditions. It doesn’t take much for the mold growth to begin and then quickly spread.
